Learn How to make money with Instagram, Yes you can do it! If you have an Instagram account and have some follower then by using your account, you can make money Instagram!Marketing on Instagram offers social media
enthusiasts the opportunity to land a side job where they get paid to
post pretty pictures and acquire free stuff.Instagram "influencers,"
as the industry calls them, team up with businesses to promote products
or brand campaigns on the photo-sharing platform. These promotions take
the form of photos, hashtags and captions, and compensation depends on
the brand, scope of the project and influencer's bargaining power. While
some brands pay between $5 to $10 per thousand followers, others offer
$100 per 100 followers and still others pay only in free swag. The
Instagram brand promotion business is a large one. Companies across all
industries combined spend between $1 billion and $1.5 billion per year
on sponsoring content on the platform, Thomas Rankin, CEO of Dash Hudson, a company that sources Instagram influencers for brands, told.Want that life? Here are five ways you could profit from your Instagram posts, too.1. Actively reach out to brands you like and want to work with.While
many businesses directly reach out to influencers for help promoting
their content, bloggers can also apply to brands or companies that
connect Instagram influencers with brands.Be warned, though, that
the application process to become a brand influencer is competitive.
Rankin told that Dash Hudson accepts about 1 percent of influencers who
apply to represent the brands it manages, such as Gilt and Bebe. The
company generally sees between 25 to 50 applications per brand campaign,
he added.2. Post consistently and stylishly on Instagram.Your
feed is your social media "résumé," which brands use to determine
whether or not to hire you as an influencer. A good Instagram presence
means consistent, tasteful photo posts and captions. The bigger your
Instagram portfolio, the better.Brands also look for influencers whose Instagram style matches that of the brand.Rankin
gave a few examples of Dash Hudson's criteria: "What does the content
look like? Does the feed have beautiful, original photos? Is the style
of content what we're looking for the brands we're working with? What's
their follower number and engagement rate?"3. Maintain a strong presence on other social media sites.In her blog, influencer Peg Fitzpatrick -- author of the book The Art of Social Media: Power Tips for Power Users --
emphasizes the importance of maintaining an "active" and "professional"
social media presence across platforms, especially LinkedIn."All
the brands and agencies that I've worked with and talked to check
LinkedIn to find out more about people before working with them,"
Fitzpatrick added.4. Have at least 5,000 followers.The
number of followers that brands require their influencers to have
depends on the company, campaign and project, but most brands generally
require that their influencers have at least 5,000 followers. Dash
Hudson tends to select influencers who have at least 10,000, according
to Rankin. Skinny Bee Tea, a small detox tea company that launched this
past February, requires its ambassadors to have a minimum of 5,000. (You
can buy real and targeted followers from Instagram Networks such as Build My Likes)For
users with larger followings, the process of becoming an influencer can
be a fairly smooth one. "A lot of times a brand will contact me and
want me to promote a product, event, show or anything," Tim Melideo, a
photographer with 31,000 Instagram followers, told HuffPost. "I have rates that they pay in addition to sending me the product."And
the more established an Instagrammer is, the more they can charge for
their posts. "I rarely promote products for free anymore," Melideo
wrote. "I am now able to utilize my social influence to help pay for
food and to live."In May, Harper's Bazaar reported
that Danielle Bernstein, the fashion blogger behind @weworewhat, which
has 1.1 million followers, charges anywhere between $5,000 and $15,000
for a single branded Instagram post.5. Become an unpaid brand ambassador.No
luck finding gigs as a paid influencer? There's another way to get
compensated for your stylish Instagram posts. Bloggers can apply to be
unpaid "brand ambassadors," to whom businesses send freebies for
promotion. Skinny Bee Tea, for example, has a skinnybeetea.com brand ambassador program,
through which it sends bloggers a 14-day detox package to promote on
their social media accounts. Other small brands offer similar programs.The
application process for unpaid brand ambassadorships is the same as for
paid influencers, but the odds of getting accepted to be an unpaid
brand ambassador tend to be more favorable. Skinny Bee Tea receives two
to eight applications per month and accepts about one-third of them into
the ambassador program, Kristen Zahodne, the company's owner, told.
